I like manual as well. I have but 4 trays in my freezer & you’d be surprised how fast my ice container fills up. I have had & heard nothing but problems w/ ice makers. They break down very easily and seem to contain any odor that might be in your freezer. I’ve had ice come out that smelled like garlic (frozen garlic bread). In my opinion, it’s not worth the $$$, frustration & aggravation!

Amazing! There was a time when home appliances lasted 20 years, now all I hear is most people get 7-10 years out of them. I’m only guessing but between the cost of someone coming to your house and either replacing it or repairing it, you’re looking at $200.00+. All this on a product that cost new parhaps $700-$800.00 unless you went for a real fancy one. Maybe you want to shut the water off to it, take it out and look yourself,(the water shut off will be tiny valve in the basement tapped into an existing water pipe) perhaps it’s only clogged with mineral build up and some white vinagar may solve the problem. If not,abandon it and use ice cube trays, till it’s time to get a new rerigerator. The cost of replacement parts for most appliances are rediculous.

You should work on the delivery a bit. Your post was not outrageous enough to be differentiated from someone stupid enough, who would actually make that kind of statement. It was “Saget-ish” in nature.

I have sent the following email to Simon and J, but will also post it here, so readers can see it has been addressed.

You guys, come ON now. Stop the arguing. This is absurd!

I love that both of you are regular commenters, but come on …

We have talked about this before. You are grown men, yet argue like children on the playground. You take the topic at hand and twist and veil it so it’s ever-so-slightly about what we are talking about, but really it’s just an arena for the two of you to fight.

Stop it. Please.

(And, from this point forward, I will not be posting any comments from either of you attacking the other- period. I don’t care if it relates to the topic. You two turn everything into a one-on-one arguement, and it’s a distraction.)
